While she's trying to convince him that she's the right person for the job, he's trying to convince her that she can become so much more to him than what her job can offer.
But Sophie's always had her head in her career, and she won't let Nate distract her from her goals. Which is rather difficult when Nate has his mind set on winning her over. Can she choose Nate over what she thought she wanted? Or has what she's always wanted been something completely different all along?
